拟南芥突变体在生长素信号传导中的研究进展

近年来,在植物激素的信号传导研究上已取得突破性进展.生长素的信号传导通路研究除了在生长素结合蛋白(ABP)上有所进展外,在生长素应答基因(Aux IAA),生长素调节因子(ARF)以及感应突变体的研究上也取得较大进展.对生长素运输通路及PIN1蛋白的功能和其抑制剂的研究也使对生长素信号传导的认识更清楚.生长素应答基因(Aux IAA)是生长素处理后快速诱导的基因.Aux IAA蛋白具有组织特异性(例如SAU蛋白)可以用来研究外源激素对植物生长发育的影响.生长素调节因子(ARF)与生长素应答基因的启动子序列具有特异性结合,Aux IAA蛋白与生长素调节因子(ARF)相互作用,并引发一系列蛋白质降解.使用转基因的拟南芥突变体,能有效地研究生长素在植物体内的特异性分布.借助运输载体抑制剂,可以对生长素的极性运输有更深入的了解.已经证明PIN蛋白参与生长素运输并与肌动蛋白有关.而且生长素参与了赤霉素介导的植物伸长反应.

拟南芥矮小丛生突变体的分离与分子鉴定

顶端优势是指侧生分生组织的生长被主茎或主花序所抑制.最近的研究通过分离和鉴定顶端优势发生改变的突变体开始揭示顶端优势的分子机制.通过T-DNA标签法分离了拟南芥矮小丛生(bushy and dwarf 1, bud1 )突变体.突变体植株的表型包括顶端优势丧失、株型矮小,表明bud1 突变体存在生长素代谢、运输或信号传导的缺陷.一个对生长素特异反应的启动子驱动的报告基因在bud1 中表达模式改变.生长素敏感性和运输能力的测定表明这两个过程在 bud1中均正常.以上结果显示bud1 表型是生长素代谢缺陷的结果.遗传分析表明BUD1 为半显性突变且与一个T-DNA插入共分离,可通过iPCR方法分离.

拟南芥生长素相关突变体uro的光依赖性乙烯信号异常

拟南芥uro（upright rosette）突变体由于它的莲座叶垂直向上生长而得名。已有的研究表明,uro突变体的表型是由单突变导致的;同时,URO基因可能参与生长素对拟南芥发育的调控过程。uro突变体具有一些乙烯相关的表型特征,如：偏下性生长的叶,较长的下胚轴,宿存的花被等。施加乙烯与乙烯作用抑制剂硝酸银的实验结果显示,uro突变体的部分表型特征是由于乙烯信号系统异常所造成的。

目的:鉴于生长素结合蛋白(Auxin Binding Protein,ABP)能与生长素特异性结合,因而探讨研究其直接用于生长素信号转导机理和生物传感器的可能性与可行性。方法:通过RT-PCR获得拟南芥生长素结合蛋白1(Auxin bing protein 1,ABP1)的全长CDS,将其克隆到原核表达载体pGEX4T-1中,成功构建pGEX4T-1-ABP1重组表达载体。经酶切、PCR及DNA测序鉴定后,将阳性质粒转化表达受体菌BL21(DE3)。加入异丙基-β-D-硫代半乳糖苷(IPTG)进行诱导后,取样进行SDS-PAGE分析。结果:成功表达出一个分子量约为43 kD的可溶性融合蛋白,并利用GST亲和柱纯化方式得到了ABPl。结论:通过原核表达并经GST柱纯化后获得ABP1,为生长素生物传感器的研制开辟新的途径。同时为进一步研究ABP1与生长素的信号转导机制和生长素在生物传感测定技术中的研究和应用奠定基础。

The indirect role of 2,4-D in the maintenance of apical dominance in decapitated sunflower seedlings (Helianthus annuus L.)

When sufficient 2,4-D to maintain apical dominance for at least 21d was applied to the cut stem interface of sunflower seedlings which had been decapitated in the epicotyl, it could not be detected in the vicinity of the inhibited axillary buds 7d after application. Rather the 2,4-D concentrated at the stump apex where it was associated with formation of meristematic tissue. The results indicate an indirect role for 2,4-D in the maintenance of apical dominance in this system, possibly involving the induced meristematic activity.Abbreviations 2,4-D 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - [¹⁴C]2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxy[2-¹⁴C]acetic acid - IAA indol-3-yl-acetic acid     

Another evidence for inhibitory effect of auxin in adventitious bud formation of decapitated flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) seedlings

Adventitious buds were formed on the hypocotyls of decapitated flax seedlings. Scanning electron and light microscopic examinations of hypocotyls showed that epidermal cells divided to produce meristematic spots from which several leaf primordia were formed. Between leaf primordia and the original vascular tissues of hypocotyls, new xylem cells were formed which connected them. About 10, 30 and 60% of adventitious buds were formed on upper, middle and basal parts of hypocotyls of decapitated seedlings, respectively. Removal of apical meristem together with longer hypocotyl zero to four cm long below the apical meristem) induced higher percentage of adventitious bud formation in the remaining hypocotyl. When the entire hypocotyl was cut into 16 segments (0.25 cm each) and these segments were cultured on MS medium containing 3% sucrose and 0.8% agar, adventitious buds were mainly formed in the lowest five segments. These results suggested that there was a gradient of inhibitory factor(s) from apical to basal part of hypocotyl with respect to adventitious bud formation. Auxin transport inhibitors, morphactin and TIBA induced adventitious bud formation on intact seedlings by suppressing the basipetal movement of auxin.     

受非生物胁迫和稻瘟病胁迫双重诱导的OsWRKY转录因子基因表达特征分析

OsWRKY 转录因子在水稻非生物胁迫和抗病反应中具有相当重要的调节作用。为阐明其调节作用提供依据,研究了疑似功能广泛的 OsWRKY 转录因子表达谱,采用五个 OsWRKY 转录因子基因,即 Os-WRKY7、OsWRKY11、OsWRKY30、OsWRKY70和 OsWRKY89,利用 real-time PCR 研究各种非生物胁迫和稻瘟菌胁迫诱导表达特征,以及各种激素对 OsWRKY 表达量的影响。所采用的五个基因均受到稻瘟菌胁迫的诱导,而且各种非生物胁迫也能不同程度地诱导其表达。在各个激素处理下,有些被诱导或被抑制,也有未受影响。五个 OsWRKY 基因均有可能参与稻瘟病胁迫响应。其中 OsWRKY7和 OsWRKY70可能是在JA 和 SA 相互拮抗调控下参与,OsWRKY89可能是通过非本研究涉及的其他激素途径参与。在非生物胁迫方面,OsWRKY7可能通过 ABA 途径参与干旱、高盐和极端温度胁迫;OsWRKY11有可能参与高盐胁迫;OsWRKY30有可能参与高盐和高温胁迫;OsWRKY70可能参与高盐、干旱和极端温度胁迫;OsWRKY89可能参与高温胁迫,但并不是通过本研究所涉及的四种激素途径。     

Involvement of auxin and cytokinins in initiation of growth of isolated pea buds

Axillary buds from the second primary scale excised from 21-day-old pea(Pisum sativum L. cv. Vladan) plants were used as a modelsystem for studying the release of buds from apical dominance. The isolatedbudswere transferred onto basal medium with or without a supplement of growthregulators and cultivated up to 24 h in short-term and up to 4weeks in long-term experiments. In both sets of experiments endogenous IAA,cytokinins and the uptake of labelled zeatin were analysed. The development ofbuds was monitored by image analysis, estimation of their weight, and byanatomical studies. Generative meristems were found in isolated axillary budsalready in 21-day-old plants at the beginning of the experimental period. Theonset of bud growth was recorded as soon as 2 h after the budexcision by image analysis. The bud growth was accompanied by a rapid transientincrease of the endogenous IAA level within the first 2 h,followedby an increase of iPA within 24 h. The uptake of the exogenouscytokinin ([³H]Z) reached its peak between the 6 and 8hafter the release from apical dominance. The cytokinin analyses of bothshort-term and long-term bud cultures revealed the increase of free cytokininsand their glucosides, indicating de novo synthesis ofcytokinins in the buds themselves.
